Alien Breed Receives Price Cut Smackdown

And just like that, $4.99 is a thing of the past.

Last week, Team17 released a revamped version of the old Amiga classic, Alien Breed, which made us very happy. Well, the $4.99 price tag was a bit of a bummer, as one does not simply sell a five-dollar video game on the App Store. After all, there's a community to think about, a group of players that expect $0.99 or even worse, free.

On that note, the company quickly slashed the price of its excellent 2D blast-a-thon to a more reasonable $0.99. Of course, this does nothing for early adopters, but let's face it, if you're willing to fork over the dough on day one, then you already know what's likely to happen 24 hours, a week and even a month down the road.
